A DECISION to let city<br />
councillor David East off the<br />
hook after he made allegations<br />
council staff had tampered with<br />
the District Plan has been met<br />
with relief.<br />
Coastal-Burwood Community<br />
Board deputy chairman Tim<br />
Sintes said he is happy the ordeal<br />
is now over for Cr East.<br />
“I’m very pleased the<br />
allegation against (David) has<br />
been dropped. It has been a<br />
long, drawn-out experience for<br />
everyone, so obviously it’s a step<br />
forward and hopefully we can<br />
start afresh,” he said.<br />
“It’s unfortunate it had to<br />
get to that and I’m glad it’s all<br />
over.”<br />
Mr Sintes, along with Cr<br />
East, Linwood-Central-<br />
Heathcote Community Board<br />
member Darrell Latham and<br />
Coastal-Burwood Community<br />
Board chairwoman Kim Money<br />
alleged city council staff had<br />
omitted a clause which gives<br />
leeway to people in specific<br />
coastal areas, deemed at risk of<br />
flooding, to build and extend<br />
homes.<br />

No Money<br />
for board<br />
as her five<br />
grandkids<br />
take priority<br />
• By Matt Slaughter<br />
FAMILY commitments have led<br />
to Kim Money deciding not to run<br />
again for the Coastal-Burwood<br />
Community Board.<br />
Ms Money said she has<br />
contributed 40-60 hours a week<br />
as chairwoman but now it is<br />
time to concentrate on her five<br />
grandchildren.<br />
“It has been a hard call, but a very<br />
considered decision, and not one<br />
that I have taken lightly. This role<br />
and the responsibilities that come<br />
with it have consumed a huge part<br />
of my life and I have made many<br />
personal sacrifices to do so.”<br />
She said she is at a stage in her<br />
life when her family has to come<br />
first.<br />
“I need to take some time to<br />
re-prioritise a few things. One of<br />
those priorities is to spend more<br />
time with my family. Three years<br />
ago, I had one grandchild, I now<br />
have five.”<br />
In spite of leaving the community<br />
board, she said she will continue to<br />
contribute her expertise to issues<br />
affecting the Coastal and Burwood<br />
wards.<br />

Idea to revitalise mall<br />
• By Matt Slaughter<br />
A COASTAL Ward city council<br />
candidate has an idea he thinks<br />
could revitalise New Brighton<br />
Pedestrian Mall.<br />
But, it could cost ratepayers<br />
$<strong>20</strong> million.<br />
Medical supplies salesman<br />
Kelly Barber, who is running<br />
against David East for the<br />
Coastal Ward seat says the city<br />
council should buy a section of<br />
the east side of New Brighton<br />
mall off landowners and<br />
revitalise it themselves.<br />
Business owners in the mall<br />
and the New Brighton Business<br />
and Landowners Association say<br />
the idea sounds good on paper,<br />
but are concerned with the<br />
impact this could have.<br />
Karma Free Cafe owner Elena<br />
Bushnell’s business sits at the<br />
east side of the mall.<br />
She said she would support<br />
Mr Barber’s idea if it meant her<br />
business would stay in the mall,<br />
but would be “angry” it was<br />
forced to move.<br />
“I have no idea if they [the city<br />
council] would keep us or what<br />
they would do with us, I don’t<br />
know.<br />
“We just bought this business<br />
recently so we have quite a bit<br />
of debt to pay . . . so if we will be<br />
REVITALISATION: City council candidate Kelly Barber wants<br />
the city council to purchase a section of the east end of New<br />
Brighton Mall and revitalise it.<br />
taken out, then definitely we will<br />
be angry.”<br />
New Brighton Business<br />
and Landowners Association<br />
chairwoman Rebbeca Tavete<br />
said the idea was not as simple<br />
as it sounded, but she would<br />
support it if Mr Barber could<br />
find a way to make it happen.<br />
“A collective purchase would<br />
be great if there’s the money<br />
and the investment can be<br />
supported.<br />
“It sounds good doesn’t it, but<br />
how realistic is that approach<br />
and what would that mean in<br />
terms of timing and working<br />
with all the different landlords<br />
to make the purchase possible?”<br />
Said Mr Barber: “I’m talking<br />
about the eastern end of the<br />
mall, so as much as possible of<br />
the eastern end of the mall to<br />
enable somebody to perhaps<br />
build a mall or to have some<br />
kind of like coherent sort of plan<br />
enacted because at the moment I<br />
think the situation is a bit dire.<br />
“Even if it’s to purchase the<br />
land of the people who are<br />
not interested in moving New<br />
Brighton mall forward . . . even<br />
if it took them out of play by<br />
compensating them for the land<br />
and purchasing it off them.”<br />
Mr Barber said he had<br />
researched the idea and said he<br />
believed it would be possible<br />
under the city council’s Greater<br />
Christchurch Regeneration Act<br />
<strong>20</strong>16.<br />
He estimated it would cost<br />
the city council $<strong>20</strong> million to<br />
purchase the amount of land he<br />
was proposing.<br />
Mr Barber said he had doorknocked<br />
about 1000 properties<br />
in the Coastal Ward since his<br />
election campaign began and<br />
about 80 per cent of people<br />
he had spoken to had said the<br />
revitalisation of New Brighton<br />
Mall should be a priority for the<br />
city council.<br />
When asked if they would<br />
support Mr Barber’s proposal,<br />
both the city council and<br />
Development Christchurch Ltd<br />
did not comment before the<br />
<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> deadline.<br />
In Brief<br />
ROAD DESIGN TO REMAIN<br />
The Papanui-Innes Community<br />
Board has decided not to cut off a<br />
right turn into the KFC on Shirley<br />
Rd to ease traffic congestion.<br />
<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> reported last month<br />
the board was considering<br />
extending a traffic island just<br />
down from an entrance to prevent<br />
drivers from being able to make<br />
the turn, but it was decided this<br />
would be more dangerous than<br />
keeping it.<br />
WATER AMOUNT REQUESTED<br />
Concerns have been raised about<br />
the amount of water from the new<br />
floating wetland in Shirley that<br />
will be deposited into the Avon<br />
River. City council staff have<br />
been asked to report back to the<br />
Coastal-Burwood Community<br />
Board with this information.<br />
The wetlands are designed to<br />
help reduce the flood risk for<br />
properties upstream in Shirley.<br />
FIND A COLOURED ROCK<br />
Colourful rocks are adding<br />
some fun to the Southshore<br />
estuary edge track. Residents are<br />
collecting rocks, painting them<br />
and hiding them in different spots<br />
along the track for others to find.<br />
Photos of the rocks are sometimes<br />
then posted to the Southshore<br />
8062 Facebook page, thanking<br />
whoever hid them.<br />

Questions raised<br />
over length<br />
of stopbank<br />
• By Matt Slaughter<br />
THE PLANNED length of<br />
a stopbank to be installed in<br />
South New Brighton has been<br />
questioned.<br />
The bund is set to be installed<br />
as part of a project to extend<br />
stopbanks south of Bridge St in<br />
South New Brighton to reduce<br />
the impact of tidal flooding for<br />
more than 500 properties near the<br />
estuary.<br />
Coastal Burwood Community<br />
Board chairwoman Kim Money<br />
said the bund will not extend far<br />
enough to protect a part of South<br />
New Brighton School, which she<br />
and the board believe will be<br />
prone to flooding.<br />
“[City council] staff have said<br />
that this is the best way forward<br />
and that the report that they got<br />
back said that the areas where the<br />
school are didn’t need protecting<br />
given a modelling for a 50-year<br />
flood said that the school wasn’t<br />
in danger.<br />
She said the community board<br />
had asked city council staff to<br />
reconsider this.<br />
The project to protect<br />
properties in South New<br />
Brighton from flooding began<br />
last month.<br />
More support for intersection upgrade<br />
Wheelchair<br />
users’ convince<br />
board to act<br />
• By Matt Slaughter<br />
THE MAIREHAU and<br />
Burwood Rds intersection<br />
needs to be made safer for<br />
wheelchair users sooner, says<br />
the Coastal-Burwood<br />
Community Board.<br />
The board has requested the<br />
city council improve safety<br />
measures at the intersection as<br />
soon as possible, rather than<br />
in <strong>20</strong>23 when $1.3 million is<br />
budgeted for the project.<br />
<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> reported in June<br />
on inexperienced wheelchair<br />
users from Burwood Hospital’s<br />
spinal unit being put in danger<br />
when trying to cross the road to<br />
get to the nearby shops.<br />
A site meeting was held<br />
last month at the intersection<br />
between the community<br />
board, city council staff and<br />
representatives from the New<br />
Zealand Spinal Trust, New<br />
Zealand Transport Agency and<br />
Canterbury District Health<br />
Board.<br />
Community board<br />
chairwoman Kim Money,<br />
who has had a spinal injury<br />
SAFETY PUSH: New Zealand Spinal Trust representatives<br />
Hans Wouters (left) and Brett Ladbrook have been calling<br />
for safety improvements at the Mairehau and Burwood Rds<br />
intersection. <br />
herself, said the risks wheelchair<br />
users face when crossing the<br />
intersection are clear.<br />
“When this is brought to<br />
your attention . . . you just see<br />
that these members of our<br />
community really need our<br />
help here to prioritise this. If<br />
their first venture out in their<br />
wheelchair onto the street is<br />
in this area to perhaps go over<br />
to the little dairy . . . if there’s<br />
anything that we can do to make<br />
that first venture out a safe one<br />
and take the stress out of it, we<br />
need to do that.”<br />
New Zealand Spinal Trust<br />
chief executive Hans Wouters<br />
said the community board<br />
formalising a request to<br />
complete the intersection safety<br />
improvements sooner is another<br />
good step towards making this<br />
happen.<br />
“The New Zealand Spinal<br />
Trust has been very pleased with<br />
the consultation process and<br />
believe we were well listened to.<br />
Clearly the community board’s<br />
decision is good evidence of that<br />
and we’re pleased again at this<br />
positive progress.”<br />
The spinal trust’s preferred<br />
option to improve safety is for<br />
traffic lights to replace the four<br />
traffic islands and roundabout<br />
currently at the intersection,<br />
which are hard for wheelchair<br />
users to navigate.<br />
Mr Wouters has not heard<br />
back from the city council as to<br />
whether this will happen, but<br />
hopes it would.<br />
The city council could not<br />
say yet if funding for the<br />
intersection improvements will<br />
be made available sooner, when<br />
it will decide if they will happen,<br />
or if traffic lights would be<br />
chosen as the safest option.<br />

Complaint against<br />
East dropped<br />
•From page 1<br />
The three community board<br />
members were cleared of their<br />
code of conduct complaints last<br />
month. Cr East was not and<br />
remained in negotiations with<br />
the city council until last Tuesday<br />
when he felt they had reached a<br />
stalemate.<br />
Cr East withdrew from the<br />
code of conduct complaints<br />
which arose from his outspoken<br />
comments and the city council<br />
decided not to pursue the matter<br />
further following an almost yearlong<br />
battle.<br />
Cr East apologised for his<br />
claims in a city council meeting in<br />
November after it was discovered<br />
the clause had never existed.<br />
However, the city council<br />
wanted him to make a personal<br />
apology to the staff who he<br />
claimed had tampered with<br />
the District Plan. Cr East said<br />
he considered it but in the end<br />
decided against it.<br />
A council spokeswoman said<br />
East had agreed to apologise in<br />
person to staff but withdrew from<br />
the process. City council general<br />
manager of corporate services<br />
Leonie Rae was disappointed by<br />
Cr East’s withdrawal.<br />
“I really felt that we had almost<br />
got there. Cr East was to make a<br />
personal apology to staff for the<br />
allegations he made against them.<br />
“Given that the complaint<br />
cannot be resolved by agreement,<br />
I have discussed the matter with<br />
the mayor (Lianne Dalziel) and<br />
we have accepted there is no point<br />
continuing to take the complaint<br />
any further.”<br />
Cr East felt the situation could<br />
have been handled better by Ms<br />
Dalziel and former city council<br />
chief executive Karleen Edwards,<br />
considering he had already made<br />
an apology. “The previous chief<br />
executive was very determined in<br />
the protection of her staff and was<br />
unrelenting in wanting another<br />
and fuller apology, the mayor has<br />
followed her lead but has not been<br />
as dogmatic as the previous chief<br />
executive,” he said.<br />
The allegations made by<br />
Cr East and the community<br />
board members led to Greater<br />
Christchurch Regeneration<br />
Minister Megan Woods approving<br />
the city council’s proposal to<br />
amend the District Plan. But<br />
an audit commissioned by the<br />
city council by Environment<br />
Canterbury councillor Peter<br />
Skelton found there was never a<br />
missing clause.<br />
•Additional reporting Matt<br />
Slaughter<br />
Money puts family first<br />
•From page 1<br />
Said Ms Money: “I will<br />
always be passionate about our<br />
community and I will continue<br />
to invest in it and assist where<br />
possible. What this looks like, I<br />
am not quite sure yet, but I will<br />
take some time to consider my<br />
next steps.<br />
“I would also like to pursue<br />
specific community projects that<br />
I am involved in but I haven’t<br />
had the time to do so during this<br />
period.”<br />
She said one of these projects<br />
is trying to get a wheelchair<br />
and pram walkway connecting<br />
Waimairi Beach, North Beach,<br />
New Brighton, Bottle Lake Forest<br />
Park and Southshore.<br />
Ms Money said she has enjoyed<br />
her time on the board and felt<br />
both wards had developed<br />
in her time at the helm. She<br />
said her achievements include<br />
strengthening the relationship<br />
between the board, various<br />
community groups and city<br />
council staff.<br />
“I have given my all to<br />
serving the community, and it<br />
has been an absolute privilege<br />
working with and supporting<br />
the hundreds of passionate<br />
volunteers, community workers,<br />
entities and other elected<br />
members who dedicate their<br />
time and energy to make the<br />

of her five grandchildren.<br />

Coastal-Burwood Ward what it<br />
is today.”<br />
Her biggest disappointment<br />
was what little has been done<br />
to protect Southshore and<br />
South New Brighton residents’<br />
properties from the impact of<br />
rising sea-levels, coastal erosion<br />
and flooding, she said.<br />
“That community should be<br />
allowed to be able to get on with<br />
their lives and be given hope . . .<br />
and it’s just not happening.”<br />
Said Ms Money: “There is still<br />
plenty of work to be done before<br />
the elections.”<br />
Ms Money said she<br />
hopes whoever takes her<br />
place after October’s local<br />
body elections will continue to<br />
fight for the Coastal-Burwood<br />
Ward.<br />
“Whoever puts their hand<br />
up should know the issues<br />
and what is concerning residents<br />
and just continue that good<br />
work in keeping the council<br />
accountable.”<br />

Shirley Rd bus stop plan<br />
given nod of approval<br />
• By Matt Slaughter<br />
THE PLAN to upgrade a Shirley<br />
Rd bus stop has been approved.<br />
The Papanui-Innes<br />
Community Board greenlighted<br />
the plan, which will<br />
involve the extension of the<br />
existing bus stop outside Shirley<br />
Intermediate School and the<br />
construction of a new bus<br />
shelter beside it to make room<br />
for two buses at a time.<br />
Innes Ward city councillor<br />
Pauline Cotter said she hopes<br />
the upgrades will be completed<br />
by December.<br />
<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> reported last<br />
month the board delayed<br />
approving the plan and asked if<br />
more space could be created to<br />
move the bus stop and shelter<br />
back to make the facilities<br />
accessible for wheelchair users<br />
and people with mobility issues.<br />
Board members originally<br />
asked if a Ministry of<br />
Education-owned berm space<br />
outside the school could be<br />
used to create the extra room.<br />
But Cr Cotter said this was no<br />
longer necessary as an extra<br />
50cm of space would be<br />
created using city councilowned<br />
land.<br />
Cr Cotter said the board has<br />
taken about five months to come<br />
up with a plan which satisfied it.<br />
She is pleased it has now been<br />
finalised and said the wait has<br />
been worth it to ensure the<br />
extended bus stop and new<br />
shelter will cater for all bus<br />
users.<br />
“I think that it’s going to<br />
look really good for Shirley to<br />
have that, you know, improved,<br />
more comfortable, more fit-forpurpose<br />
shelter and bus stop<br />
. . . there’s some seating and then<br />
there’s room also for wheelchairs<br />
or pushchairs,” she said.<br />
“We want to really encourage<br />
people to use these buses and<br />
one of the ways to do that<br />
is for council to step up and<br />
address our infrastructure<br />

The plan<br />
to extend<br />
an existing<br />
bus stop on<br />
Shirley Rd<br />
and construct<br />
a new bus<br />

Environment Canterbury<br />
manager of public transport<br />
strategy, planning and<br />
marketing Edward Wright<br />
said the new stop will help<br />
achieve the goal of ECan’s<br />
regional public transport plan<br />
to increase the frequency of bus<br />
services.<br />
“The Palms is a key suburban<br />
hub on our bus network. The<br />
upgrades to this stop will be<br />
appreciated by the many people<br />
who use it every day. It is the<br />
main stop at The Palms for the<br />
Orange Line travelling towards<br />
the city centre, and the Orbiter<br />
travelling towards Northlands.<br />
The Orbiter and Orange Line<br />
are already high-frequency bus<br />
services,” he said.<br />

Petition for community centre<br />
• By Matt Slaughter<br />
EFFORTS TO get a new<br />
community centre built at 10<br />
Shirley Rd have been renewed.<br />
A petition was launched last<br />
Monday asking the city council<br />
for this to happen as soon as<br />
possible and it has received 80<br />
signatures.<br />
Richmond residents Jennifer<br />
Dalziel and Joanna Gould<br />
banded together with other<br />
concerned residents to start the<br />
petition.<br />
Ms Dalziel believed the<br />
city council was taking too<br />
long to decide if some form of<br />
community centre was going to<br />
be built at the site to replace the<br />
old one, which was demolished<br />
after the February 22, <strong>20</strong>11,<br />
earthquake.<br />
“Nothing’s ever happened and<br />
there are constant kind of calls<br />
for something to happen,” she<br />
said.<br />
The petition was part of a revitalised<br />
effort to remind the city<br />
council that Shirley residents’<br />
were impatient and frustrated<br />
waiting for development to happen<br />
in the area.<br />
“We’re just watching everybody<br />
else get all of these things<br />
and we’re not getting anything,<br />
she said.”<br />
However, city council head<br />
of community support, governance<br />
and partnerships John Filsell<br />
ACTION WANTED: A petition has been started to renew calls<br />
to build a new community centre at 10 Shirley Rd.<br />
said: “The council has<br />
commissioned a feasibility<br />
study for a community facility<br />
on 10 Shirley Rd. This will be<br />
considered by the Waipapa/<br />
Papanui-Innes Community<br />
Board, a date for this is currently<br />
being agreed. The next step<br />
depends on the outcome of the<br />
board consideration.’’<br />
Mrs Gould said the petition<br />
outlined that some form of<br />
community centre would be<br />
better than nothing, but she ideally<br />
wanted to see a new library<br />
built at the 10 Shirley Rd site,<br />
which would include space for a<br />
community centre and replace<br />
Shirley Library.<br />
“Community centres are<br />
closed groups and it’s an old<br />
kind of model, whereas libraries<br />
and learning spaces are the new<br />
model for community centres<br />
and because they’re more inclusive<br />
they capture a wider range<br />
of people.”<br />
Said Mr Filsell: “The feasibility<br />
study has not considered a<br />
library development on 10<br />
Shirley Rd within its agreed<br />
scope.”<br />
Water strategy<br />
feedback<br />
delivered to council<br />
• By Matt Slaughter<br />
THE COASTAL-Burwood<br />
Community Board has submitted<br />
its response to the city council’s<br />
draft integrated water strategy.<br />
The strategy sets guidelines<br />
and goals for the city council’s<br />
management of drinking water,<br />
wastewater and stormwater, as<br />
well as surface water, groundwater<br />
and flood management.<br />
Board member Linda<br />
Stewart said she feels<br />
the draft is confusing<br />
and ambiguous, not<br />
providing enough<br />
specific examples of how<br />
water-related threats<br />
affecting the Coastal-<br />
Burwood Ward will be<br />
addressed.<br />
Ms Stewart said these<br />
threats include potential<br />
sea level rise and flooding.<br />
She said for the Coastal-<br />
Burwood Ward, the strategy:<br />
“Doesn’t acknowledge earthquake-related<br />
damage. And so,<br />
that’s one of the biggest issues we<br />
have in both wards.”<br />
The board agreed in its submission,<br />
words like “place-making”<br />
Linda Stewart<br />
and “touchstone” used in the<br />
strategy are confusing for the<br />
community and should be simplified.<br />
“When they do council speak,<br />
we actually wonder what the<br />
heck they’re talking about,” said<br />
Ms Stewart.”<br />
But not everyone on the board<br />
was critical of the draft. Said<br />
member Tim Baker: “I have<br />
faith in the [city council] staff,<br />
a genuine faith in them that<br />
they know what they’re<br />
doing.”<br />
Said city council head<br />
of three waters and<br />
waste Helen Beaumont:<br />
“[A] hearings panel met<br />
yesterday [last Monday]<br />
and will meet again later<br />
this week [last week] to<br />
consider all submissions<br />
received. No decisions have been<br />
made, but any decisions and<br />
changes to the strategy will be<br />
published in a hearings panel<br />
report (and related attachments)<br />
that will go before a future<br />
council meeting. The report<br />
and attachments will be made<br />
publicly available as part of the<br />
council agenda.’’<br />

Avonside teen races on Olympic waterway<br />
SPORT<br />
TALENTED: Avonside Girls’ High School rower Sally Wylaars (front) helped her women’s four to<br />
fifth at the junior world championships in Japan.<br />
PHOTO: ROWING NZ<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
AVONSIDE GIRLS’ High<br />
rower Sally Wylaars has helped<br />
her New Zealand coxless four<br />
to fifth at the junior world<br />
championships in Tokyo.<br />
The 17-year-old,<br />
who was in the stroke<br />
seat, rowed with Lucy<br />
Burrell, Alison Mills<br />
and Charlotte Darry at<br />
her first international<br />
regatta.<br />
The combination<br />
finished second in their<br />
heat, maintaining that<br />
place throughout the<br />
race and finishing in<br />
6min 46.090sec – 3sec<br />
behind the Italian crew but still<br />
good enough to automatically<br />
make the final.<br />
In the final, the crew made a<br />
strong start and were in second<br />
position at the first 500m mark.<br />
But they were unable to keep up<br />
Sally Wylaars<br />
with China, Italy and Germany,<br />
which took gold, silver and<br />
bronze respectively. Darry, Mills,<br />
Burrell and Wylaars finished the<br />
final in 7min 14.50sec.<br />
Wylaars was recently<br />
named achiever of the year<br />
at the Canterbury<br />
Rowing Awards for her<br />
progression in the sport.<br />
She has been rowing<br />
for four seasons and<br />
won a silver medal at the<br />
under-18 double sculls<br />
with her Avonside Girls’<br />
High teammate Maddy<br />
Thornton earlier this<br />
year.<br />
The course for<br />
the junior world<br />
championships, known as the<br />
Sea Forest Waterway, is a newlyconstructed<br />
venue for the <strong>20</strong><strong>20</strong><br />
Olympic and Paralympic Games.<br />
Fifty nations took part in the<br />
junior championships and more<br />
than 550 athletes competed.<br />
Run New Brighton hits<br />
the streets to deliver<br />
health and well-being<br />
A NEW running group is<br />
encouraging residents to get<br />
active.<br />
Run New Brighton is a notfor-profit<br />
initiative set up by the<br />
New Brighton Olympic Athletics<br />
Club to get more people running<br />
in the area.<br />
The members meet every<br />
Wednesday at 5.30pm at<br />
the New Brighton Olympic<br />
Clubrooms.<br />
There are pace-specific groups,<br />
which cater for beginner,<br />
intermediate and competitive<br />
runners.<br />
Run New Brighton organiser<br />
Hayden Zervos said the group<br />
allows runners and people of<br />
different ages and backgrounds<br />
to improve their fitness.<br />
He said the group helps<br />
improve the well-being of people<br />
in the area.<br />
“Eastern Christchurch has<br />
reportedly not psychologically<br />
recovered to pre-earthquake<br />
levels,” he said.<br />
“Recreational groups can<br />
play a role in the psychological<br />
recovery of communities in<br />
eastern Christchurch, which<br />
could reduce pressure on local<br />
mental health support services<br />
and potentially reduce smoking<br />
rates and alcohol consumption,<br />
which are often driven by stress<br />
factors.<br />
“Running individually, and<br />
more so with a group of people,<br />
has been proven to deliver<br />
physical and mental health<br />
benefits.<br />
“It can help to address anxiety,<br />
depression, loneliness and raise<br />
self-esteem and confidence.<br />
“I have personally been<br />
running for over eight years<br />
and I credit it with making me a<br />
better person not just physically<br />
but also socially.”<br />

Tasty Bites<br />
Getting protein through a science-based diet<br />
The role of protein in<br />
people’s bodies, its<br />
sources and the benefits of<br />
consuming it across the day<br />
can’t be underestimated.<br />
These recipes provide a<br />
science-based approach to<br />
ensuring you get enough in<br />
your diet<br />
Orange kumara and<br />
haloumi fritters<br />
Serves 4<br />
Ingredients<br />
1.2kg orange kumara, peeled and<br />
coarsely grated<br />
3<strong>20</strong>g haloumi, coarsely grated<br />
2 tsp ground cumin<br />
Light olive oil spray for cooking<br />
2 cloves garlic, crushed<br />
4 spring onions, white part thinly<br />
sliced into rounds, green part<br />
thinly sliced diagonally<br />
1<strong>20</strong>g baby spinach leaves<br />
Avocado dressing:<br />
80g medium-sized avocado<br />
⅓ cup (80ml) white wine vinegar<br />
or apple cider vinegar<br />
½ tsp dijon mustard<br />
Directions<br />
To make the avocado dressing,<br />
blend all the ingredients in a jug<br />
with a hand-held blender until<br />
smooth. Season with black pepper<br />
and set aside.<br />
Heat a large non-stick frying<br />
pan over low-medium heat.<br />
Combine the kumara, haloumi<br />
and cumin in a bowl and season<br />
with freshly ground black pepper.<br />
Lightly spray the pan with<br />
olive oil and drop in firmly<br />
packed cup measures of the<br />
kumara mixture, pressing down<br />
to form 8cm circles. Depending<br />
on the size of your pan, you will<br />
probably need to do this in two<br />
batches of four.<br />
Cook for 5min each side<br />
or until golden and cooked<br />
through. Remove and cover to<br />
keep warm. Lightly spray the pan<br />
with a little more oil and increase<br />
the heat to high.<br />
Add the garlic, white part<br />
of the spring onion, spinach<br />
and 60ml water. Cook, tossing<br />
constantly, for 2min or until the<br />
spinach has just wilted. Remove<br />
the pan from the heat and season<br />
with black pepper.<br />
Serve two kumara fritters per<br />
person, layered with the spinach<br />
mixture. Spoon over the dressing<br />
and sprinkle with the green<br />
spring onion.<br />
Roast herb chicken and<br />
vegetables<br />
Serves 4 with leftovers<br />
Ingredients<br />
½ cup finely chopped flat-leaf<br />
parsley<br />
2 Tbsp finely chopped rosemary<br />
1 Tbsp mixed dried herbs<br />
6 cloves garlic, crushed<br />
¼ cup (60ml) olive oil<br />
¼ cup (60ml) red wine vinegar<br />
1.8kg lean chicken tenderloins<br />
1 head cauliflower, cut into florets<br />
7 carrots, sliced into rounds<br />
7 zucchini, thickly sliced into<br />
rounds<br />
750g button mushrooms<br />
Light olive oil spray for cooking<br />
1 cup (250ml) salt-reduced<br />
chicken stock<br />
Lemon wedges and flat-leaf parsley<br />
leaves, to serve<br />
Ingredients<br />
Heat the oven to <strong>20</strong>0 deg C (or<br />
180 deg C fan-forced).<br />
Combine the parsley, rosemary,<br />
dried herbs, garlic, olive<br />
oil, vinegar and chicken in a<br />
large bowl. Season generously<br />
with freshly ground black pepper<br />
and toss well to coat the chicken.<br />
Divide the vegetables among<br />
two large roasting tins and<br />
lightly spray with olive oil. Toss<br />
to combine, then top evenly with<br />
the chicken mixture.<br />
Pour half the stock over the<br />
ingredients in each tin. Bake,<br />
swapping the tins halfway<br />
through and tossing the chicken<br />
and vegetables, for 25-30min<br />
or until the chicken is cooked<br />
through and the vegetables are<br />
soft.<br />
Divide one-third of the chicken<br />
and vegetables among four for<br />
dinner, with lemon wedges and<br />
parsley. Cool the leftovers, then<br />
divide evenly between two large<br />
airtight containers.<br />
Store the leftovers in the fridge<br />
for up to two days or in the<br />
freezer for three months. Thaw<br />
the frozen mixture in the fridge<br />
overnight. Transfer the chilled<br />
mixture to a baking dish and<br />
reheat in a preheated 2<strong>20</strong> deg C<br />
(<strong>20</strong>0 deg C fan-forced) oven for<br />
15-<strong>20</strong>min or until hot and crisp.<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />
Superior new magnesium<br />
offers more health benefits!<br />
Magnesium deficiency is widespread with<br />
researchers estimating up to 90% are not<br />
receiving adequate magnesium in their diet.<br />
According to medical researcher Dr. James<br />
DiNicolantonio magnesium deficiency<br />
increases the risk of numerous types of<br />
cardiovascular and other diseases, costing<br />
nations around the world an incalculable<br />
amount of healthcare costs and suffering, and<br />
should be considered a public health crisis.<br />
Some of the typical signs of a magnesium<br />
deficiency are: muscle cramps – especially<br />
in the legs, muscle spasms and twitches,<br />
fatigue, high blood pressure, poor<br />
circulation, sore – heavy or uncomfortable<br />
legs, irregular heart-beat, muscle and back<br />
pain, insomnia, headaches, migraines and<br />
anxiety. Sub-optimal magnesium levels are<br />
also associated with many diseases including<br />
diabetes, asthma, osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s,<br />
cardiovascular, ADHD and kidney.<br />
There are many popular magnesium<br />
supplements on the market, however most<br />
use low cost sources of magnesium that are<br />
also poorly absorbed offering little benefit.<br />
Seeing the serious impact on health that<br />
low magnesium levels are having a New<br />
Zealand company “Biosphere Nutrition”<br />
have developed a new magnesium that offers<br />
superior absorption and more health benefits<br />
compared to most other products available.<br />
Biosphere Magnesium has been created to<br />
be the cleanest, most bioavailable magnesium<br />
supplement available. It combines three<br />
types of the most bioavailable forms of<br />
magnesium to create the ideal dose with<br />
optimal absorption. Each serving provides<br />
a therapeutic dose of 400mg elemental<br />
magnesium to help people maintain<br />
optimum magnesium levels. It is also easy<br />
to take as it comes as a great tasting, easy to<br />
mix powder that is also free of binders, fillers<br />
and artificial ingredients. It is flavoured with<br />
a natural lemon flavour and sweetened with<br />
natural stevia and monk fruit extracts and<br />
coloured with a dash of turmeric.<br />
Magnesium Citrate is the first of the three<br />
magnesium’s. Biosphere have used a natural<br />
marine based magnesium citrate as it has a<br />
great absorption rate and mixes well with<br />
water.<br />
Next is Magnesium Lyscinate Glycinate<br />
Chelate a stable magnesium designed to be<br />
the most bioavailable possible as well as easy<br />
on the stomach.<br />
The last is Di Magnesium Malate a<br />
fantastic form of magnesium for people<br />
suffering from fatigue, since malic acid is<br />
a vital component of enzymes that play<br />
a key role in ATP synthesis and energy<br />
production.<br />
Optimal magnesium levels have been<br />
shown to: Improve Energy, Improve<br />
Sleep, Normalise Blood Pressure, Control<br />
Inflammation, Reduce Pain, Regulate Blood<br />
Sugar, Stop Cramping, Support Normal<br />
Nerve and Muscle Function, Support Healthy<br />
Bones and Help Maintain Good Health.<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />
Get rid of<br />
dampness in<br />
your house<br />
The facts about<br />
Home Ventilation<br />
Balanced Pressure<br />
vs Positive Pressure<br />
Now with the colder and wetter weather<br />
on its way, home owners are focusing on<br />
ways to make their homes comfortable,<br />
warm and healthy for their families<br />
throughout winter. Rising damp is an issue<br />
that affects many of our older properties<br />
which suffer from poor, or no, insulation.<br />
In Canterbury especially, post-quake, many<br />
people have relocated to homes that suffer<br />
from rising damp which can be associated<br />
with health problems. Independent tests<br />
have shown that up to 40 litres of water<br />
can rise from the ground and enter a<br />
house every day, leading to mildew, mould,<br />
condensation and musty smells. Moulds<br />
can produce various allergic reactions<br />
and the frail, elderly and very young are<br />
especially vulnerable.<br />
Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a<br />
locally owned and operated firm. The<br />
team understands the problems caused<br />
by rising damp and are there to help.<br />
They will come to your damp home<br />
and pump a lightweight, flowable foam<br />
concrete under your timber floored home.<br />
Specially adapted for our New Zealand<br />
conditions and applications it provides a<br />
layer of protection against rising moisture.<br />
An unexpected benefit that the team at<br />
Canterbury Foam Concrete have noticed<br />
recently, is that many owners of properties<br />
which had underfloor foam concrete<br />
installed, reported that it also provided<br />
protection against liquefaction after<br />
the earthquakes.<br />
Contact Canterbury Foam Concrete<br />
Ltd now for your free, no obligation<br />
quote and complimentary appraisal of<br />
your underfloor ventilation needs. Phone<br />
03 376 4608 or 0508FOAMCO for more<br />
information.<br />
Under the New Zealand Building Code,<br />
all buildings, including residential, need<br />
to be suitably ventilated, either with<br />
opening windows or forced ventilation.<br />
Clause G4.1 states: “The objective of this<br />
provision is to safeguard people from<br />
illness or loss of amenity due to lack of<br />
fresh air.” There are many benefits to forced,<br />
or mechanical, ventilation over opening<br />
windows, including warmth, security,<br />
reduction of outside noises and reduction<br />
of condensation.<br />
Traditional domestic ventilation systems<br />
are ‘positive pressure’. They bring air in<br />
from outside via the roof space and force<br />
the stale air out through gaps around<br />
windows and doors. The incoming air<br />
from these systems has to be heated or<br />
cooled to keep the house warm in winter or<br />
cool in summer.<br />
The Smooth-Air HEX390 is a ‘balanced<br />
pressure’ system. It extracts air from the<br />
house and at the same time brings in fresh<br />
air. These two streams of air pass through<br />
a heat exchanger, which warms incoming<br />
air in winter and cools in summer if air<br />
conditioning is being used. This means that<br />
up to 80% of the energy which would be<br />
wasted using a traditional positive pressure<br />
system is recovered, resulting in significant<br />
energy savings and therefore lower heating<br />
or cooling costs.<br />
Until recently, balanced pressure<br />
ventilation systems have been considerably<br />
more expensive than traditional<br />
positive pressure systems. However,<br />
with Smooth-Air’s unique<br />
manufacturing capabilities, a<br />
HEX390 balanced pressure system<br />
can be installed for a similar price as<br />
a traditional positive pressure system.<br />
